How to Submit to a Drop box

Drop Boxes are used by instructors as a means to collect electronic submissions of lessons that can consist of typed and/or attached files (i.e. word documents, power point presentations). You must use a supported browser to insure a successful submission. We recommend Firefox, however, Internet Explorer, Chrome and Safari are now all supported. Follow the steps to submit to a drop box:

Option 3 - Message and Attachement: The instructor may want a combination of both a Message Box for you to type or cut/paste information and a file uploaded by clicking on Attachments (See Option 2 for detailed steps on uploading an Attachment) --> click Submit

NOTE: File size is limited to 2MB, to compress a flle greater
than 2MB --> right click on the file on your computer (on a MAC,
control click) --> select Send to --> Compressed
(Zipped) Folder. A copy of the file with the same title and .zip
extension will be created. Select the compressed (zipped) file to
upload. myCourses will automatically unzip the file for the instructor.

Always double check submissions for all drop box assignements, evern if you receive a notification of a successful submission. Go back to the drop box to see if your submission appears. You will only be able to see your own submission (unless the instructor has enabled Peer Review) --> click on your sumission to display your Message and/or Attachment.
